  2. december 2010 - Hargeisa Theatre. may 2012 slow progress but once finished i'm sure it'll be impressive.
  3. casestudy 2 far away from any 'civilisation', an indigenous tribe is discovered in the amazon rainforest. they've absolutely no contact with the outside 'world'. are they punishable? becos in islam it says all must 'submit' to the will of Allah? what if the message of islam doesnt reach them?

N.O.R.F;851135 wrote: What is morality? a set of values, norms and standards. not incumbent or merely derived from religion. there is a universality to it. casestudy 1 - atuk is a young man. the year is 450BC. he lives in a remote island off the coast of haguta empire. hatuga empire is going through an inserrection of sorts lol. a new man who allegedly claims to be god is causing a revoution. the empire condems this man and sends him into exile in aluta islands. he visits atuk and his family. he spreads his message to their village. the man recruits many members of the village and very soon establishes an effective administration and jails all the tribal elders and demi-gods. basically this follows Things fall Apart plot. atuk is condemned by the new man as a apostate. atuk is a moral person according to his values, norms and standards of behaviour. assuming this man is the ultimate truth and his message is the truth, how will atuk be judged and peceived in the 'afterlife' which is one of the main tenets of this new faith?
  5. no gaal can make any predictions based on scientific guesstimations.
  6. i woke up at 13:30pm. it was a long night, lets just say! manshallah that your jimce was brilliant. it is said a muslim who doesnt go to friday jummmah for 3 or 4 times isnt a muslim.

  9. So, when i logged into SOL this morning, i noticed that my notifications had reached 3, the other two notifications are useless and i havent bothered to respond. i was thinking it was the usual 'inaadeero' self-opinionated bile that arafat sends me all the time. me and arafat are now well acquainted and just the other day our friendship reached new heights now that the facebook formalities have finally been signed between our two respective accounts. although, its a friendship, Arafat gains more from given his one profile picture, which i doubt is him and too many likes, which doesn't shed any light on him. yet, when i clicked on this new and mysterious notification, it was non-other than a frienship request from AYOUB. AYOUB is not someone i've paid particular attentions to during my years on SOL but like the apprentice show's evetual winner, he's always had that the nonchalance and non-partisan nature (with the exception of SL affairs, which we are in agreement) that in the end catapultes a common man into stardom and ever-lasting success. i'm humbled by AYOUB's kind offer to be friends and I quickly reached the firm decision that such an action warranted. AYOUB, this is a great day for potential cordial ties, ties built on productive relations, team work and loyalty. we shall overcome any obstacles to our joint strategic endeavours and will lay traps and destroy all rabble-rouses whose aim is to undermine our collective spirits. from this day forth, all your enemies are my enemies, your friends my friends and i pledge absolute loyalty and dedication to this new partnership of strength. hail AYOUB the Great and God Bless Somaliland. Al.
  10. how can proceed forward when UNICEF owes the rights to somaliland's education curriculum?
  11. another classic from the empress of roots!
  12. lol@vanilla homie, i don't think i'd particularly want to contact che if he posted his number. there is something very unsettling about this demeanor.
  13. these bunch of homegrown militant atheists are ruining many a threads with their anti-god stances. this is unacceptable.
  14. ^ baal nacaskan eega! waar nagada ciyaarta dee lol. research can be engendered based on the framework you're working under.

However annoying they are, I will always love them and love doesn't always mean saying yes..It's ok to say no sometimes. (Reassuring myself:p...Now I just need to put it all into action. such is the corruption of indulging in western type consumerism that it now appears to have permeated all seemingly 'good' somali households. i remember in our family, we shared everything that could possibly be shared maybe with the exception of clothes.
  16. If y'all could provide further feeback to my questions that would be greatly appreciated. don't worry this is only for my own research purposes and i promise i'm not sharing it with any third party with a vested interest lol.

Not gonna answer until you tell what sorta of Muslim you are though I have a pretty good guess lol@el punto, the sorta that is between a rock and a hard place lol. only kidding mate. a salafi. yes, i'm a salafi. that is the closest methodology that is imbued with my deep piety and social compassion-'ism' .
  17. lol@NG, have you no xishood for goodness sakes. of course, all somali men. i read her book and felt that she externalised her somaliness noo, you know the 'i'm a somali from a distance, but i have no issues grotesquely caricaturing and exaggerating the somali experiences for western audiences'. i think k'naan can also be accused of this too. these fools have sold out and should be excommunicated and asked to leave noo. we need more authenticity and locally sourced and produced talent. what is 'real' and what is 'fiction' baal, these are questions i grapple with on a daily basis - not becos i care as my own values are shifting but rather becos it an ordained duty i have to fulfill, in my capacity, as a conscious cultural critic and an ethical hedonist. i wonder if i'll be given a seat on the panel and be allowed to express my opinion?
  18. i shall be there. i hope to meet some of the writers and organisers and in particular nadifa mohamed. i want to put nadifa mohamed to the litmus test and figure out whether all somali women with some semblance of logic think themselves superior to their somali men lol.
  19. recently performed this on karaoke. lol.
